While others rode by in gorgeous caravans, a patient little donkey was their only means of transportation. We can imagine the tall and bearded Joseph leading the animal along, glancing back ev ry now and then with words of cheer and encouragement for Mary, or pointing out some landmark along the way. Behind them now was the Sea of Geli'&e and Mt. Tabor. Through the ; lain of Estraleon they labored; then came the rough and uneven trail through Samaria, where even 1 the sure-footed donkey stumbled at I times. To the wes' the Jordan ran j its course, to em: farther south into the Dead sea Vlong their way they passed mai y places whose names would be known and revered around the world in the dim future . . . Did Mary have a vision as she went by that one day the Son whom she was about to bear would go up and down this country preach ing a new Gospel of love and peace and hope for man, and that His birth would be held in happy and blessed remembrance by all the peoples of the earth until time would be no more?

Attack By Chuch On Wet Officials Draws Hot Reply At-tii:i uf the Western North Car olina Conference of the Methodist Church in going on record with a demand for the scalp of "every pub lic official who has consented direct ly or indirectly to the betrayal of public trust" by "promoting the sal" of liquor" in the State, has not won general support. "The wisdom of such a demand nay he greatly doubted," says Char .otte Nev.s. "If ever there was a ily i.iir noise on earth, that horse is the ii'ort to make anything sacrosanct out of Prohibition.

It is also .-ho.vn that in Martin Coun ty alone liquor amounting to $270, 750.17 was sold at rt tail during that period. In the quarter eliding last December 31, liquor was sold to th" amount of $J 1.720. During that time the state collect ed about $10,000 in sales taxes, and 20 per cent of the net profits of $52, 000 was paid to the towns of Wiliams ton, Robersonviile, Oak City, and Jamesville. Sales are now averaging in excess of $10,000 a month, and $.'!,311.S7 has been set aside for law enforcement. The figures are interesting when one considers that fully as much as $13.",000 must have been spent an iual!y in Martin county during pro hibition days for whiskey, which ent into the hands of a class of people who rliil not hesitate to break the law for its income. A group of people taking in that much money oer j ear hail a considerable power. Pive.sted of this income, these peo ple have found themselves in bad circumstances, and if this condition pievails throughout the state, one can see that tne nioonsniners ami bootleggers are fast losing their standing and irfluence.

Dee. S Hog-kilHr,.' time. How th's expression stirs the activity of the farm family as cold weather arrives ! "It means pleniv of h: r 1 . ork, but it also means frer-h pork, sausage, spare ribs, liver pu Iding, craeklin' corn bread 'illing the smoke-house," said Prof R. K. Nance, of State Col lege. A ivo.l ately cool day, with the wrath" hove freezing, is better than a hitter cold day for hig-killine. I he continued. j Stop feeding the hogs 24 hours : before they are to be slaughtered. It j is easier to clean and dress the car cass when the digestive tract isem- pty. And when the system is not gorg j ed with food, the blood will drain out ! ivore readily. Don't overheat or excite the ani mals before killing. Gettingthe hog wrough-up produces a fe-veri-h C'"n (lition that prevents proper bleeding and causes the meat to sour while in cure. For scalding the carcass, Professor Nance said that water at a tempera ture of 150 is best. In cold weather, add a bucket of cold water to half a barrel of boiling water, and this will give about the right temperature. Or dip the finger into the water quickly. If it burns severely the first :ime, it is too hot. But if the finger can be dipped in three times in quics succession, with the water burning severely the third time, the temper ature is about right. A vat sunk into the ground beside a platform close to the gTound level provides a convenient place to scald the carcass and scrape off the hair. Tools that will aid in dressing the carcass are: A common six or eight-inch butcher knife, a six-inch skinning knife, a smooth steel for sharpening knives, several hog gam brel sticks, two bell shaped ho scrapers and a 28-ineh meat saw. Producers of beef cattle in Hali fax County are finding a profitable business in selling their surplus breeding animals to other North Cai olina farmers. The Clear Springs Dairy Farm of Concord, Route 2, Cabairus County has seeded 50 acres of an old pasture to Kentucky Blue Grass and Yhit Dutch clover and 50 additional ae". res of new pasture to the same ?td mixture.
